### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great resource, endless applications
  

*by J***A on Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2015*

This book is a must-have for anyone who considers themselves beyond an entry-level carpenter. A lot of the ideas, tips, and theories in the book build upon common practices, and most of the projects are a little more advanced than hanging a shelf. The book covers everything from planning the site for a new construction, to framing the walls and roof, installing siding and shingles, etc. But even as a first-timer, there is plenty of knowledge in this book for you.My usage for this book has mostly been for cutting rafters, both on a jobsite and for a shed I just built. This book gives you detailed instructions for measuring and cutting rafters without getting into the painful details of a beginner's guide to carpentry. I was able to calculate everything quickly and precisely, and there was even a guide on how to build a time-saving template to lay out your rafters identically.This is the 2nd time I have bought this book- I loaned my first copy to a coworker who didn't want to give it back! I told him Merry Christmas and bought another copy for myself. John Carroll definitely knows what he is talking about, and I appreciate his writing style.For the record, I am a licensed residential contractor with 10 years of experience, and I still found this book helpful. This was not written so advanced that the beginner won't understand- I think it is very clear and concise, and will give people a better understanding of the more technical side of the job.

    Must have for those self constructing and/or general or sub-contracting
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2017*

I have consistently bought construction books on actual building with the intent that I will inevitably waste money. This guy here is no joke, nails construction concepts on the head, with diagrams. He provides a practical point of view of construction from foundation, along with varying foundation or basement types, to the roof, and provides the building blocks of being a real construction person. Whether professionally, or doing your own like a professional. He goes through the trouble of lending an understanding of construction nuts and bolts where tools are concerned as well. A MUST HAVE FOR ANY DO-IT-YOURSELFERS. If all you want to do is go to the bank and get money so someone else will build it, reading this book will help you draft your blue prints to the actual sizes needed to accommodate exactly what you are really looking for. Well worth the money.

    A master class on some critical job site measuring
  

*by N***. on Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2019*

The author is a contributor to Fine Homebuilding and really writes with an easy clarity.  Really useful information on a variety of challenges you will face in construction.  Highly recommended.
